“…The shoots of ‘Sikulai’, ‘Pónyik’, ‘Szabadkai szercsika’, ‘Tordai piros kálvil’, ‘Kéresi muskotály’ and ‘Batul’ were the most resistant among 31 cultivars in the study of Tóth et al. () (Table ). Except ‘Sikulai’ and ‘Tordai piros kálvil’, the genetic background of the resistant phenotype of these cultivars has not been clarified until now.…”

Molecular marker analysis can be an effective tool when searching for new fire blight resistance donors. It can speed up the breeding process as well, even though many of the available markers linked to fire blight resistance QTLs have not yet been tested by screening a large number of cultivars. The aim of this study was to search for alternate sources of the three major QTLs of fire blight resistance; FBF7, FB_MR5 and FB_E, as well as to test the efficiency of some markers linked to minor QTLs. Altogether, nine primer pairs were used on 77 genotypes including new Hungarian cultivars and old apple cultivars from the Carpathian basin. Several marker alleles of FB resistance QTLs have been detected in the screened genotypes, most importantly the alleles coupling with FB_MR5 in the old cultivars ‘Kéresi muskotály’, ‘Szabadkai szercsika’ and ‘Batul’. We propose these cultivars as the first available resistance donors of FB_MR5 instead of the crabapple Malus × robusta 5. The results also bring new information regarding the resistance alleles of new Hungarian cultivars and selections.
